Falling into old habits

When my ASUS eeePC died I needed something to replace it. I ended up purchasing a Kindle Fire 8 HD. It didn't take long once I got internet access again to see how one programs these new phone and tablet devices. I downloaded Android Studio.

Of course it turns out that the Fire is an android device. I have learned a number of computer languages over time. I have also learned various ways that they are stitched together to make applications. So.....

Of course this is an entirely new paradigm. The good news is that I have lots of time. The bad news is that most of the tutorials are on line. Without Internet access my learning curve will be very steep.
